SUMMARY:Automatic Recognition of Human Affect and Social Signals - Hatice 
 Gunes\, QMUL

CONTACT:Alan Blackwell
DESCRIPTION:Computing that is sensitive to affective and social phenomena 
 aims to equip devices and interfaces with the means to interpret\,\nunders
 tand\, and respond to human personality\, affect\, moods and intentions - 
 similarly to how humans rely on their senses to assess\neach other’s aff
 ective and social behaviour.\n\nThis talk will focus on automatic recognit
 ion of affect and social signals\, and will present an overview of recent 
 research works I\nhave conducted in these fields. Automatic affect recogni
 tion will be covered in the context of human-computer interaction\n(expres
 sion and affect recognition of individuals) and co-located human-human int
 eractions (analysis of dyadic interactions for\ncollaborative music making
 \, and multi-person affect recognition). Social signal processing will be 
 explored in the context of\nautomatic prediction of trait impressions in h
 uman-virtual character interactions and human-robot interactions.
